Hip-hop singer Sean Kingston reportedly is in critical condition in a Florida hospital after crashing a personal watercraft into Palm Island Bridge in Miami Beach, with a female passenger on board.
Both were rescued by a nearby boater after the incident, which occurred Sunday at about 6 p.m. local time.
Few details were available in the hours after the incident. The Miami Herald reported that Miami Beach Fire Rescue delivered Kingston, 21, to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital. (Note: Kingston's publicist on Monday morning said the singer's condition had been stabilized and that he had been moved to the hospital's intensive care unit.)
A representative for Kingston told TMZ: "Sean Kingston was in an accident today. No further details are available at the moment. He and his family thank everyone for the well-wishes."
Kingston, who was born in Miami, became famous in 2007 with the single "Beautiful Girls."
Details about the condition of the female passenger were not immediately available.
